Doctor Mobius’ Big Hairy & Scary LEGO Spider
April 2nd, 2010
Jason Ruff, also known as Doctor Mobius, created this big hairy spider out of LEGOs. It’s pretty awesome and has thousands of hair spikes covering its body.
If that isn’t enough to give you arachnophobia, the spider comes complete with egg missiles and drones. Ever since I first discovered Spider-Man, I’ve had a weakness for spiders, so it doesn’t particularly creep me out.
What’s really amazing about this build is the amount of detail that went into it. It starts to make sense when you take a look at it closely, but it’s only then that you see what kinds of bricks were used to make this thing. Even so, it’s kind of amazing how un-LEGO-like this build looks.

Nope, no matter how many times I stare at this thing, I can’t figure out what sort of LEGO blocks he used to build it.
That’s because it’s kind of hidden thanks to those LEGO “hairs” he used. The hairs are those blocks that are controls in vehicles, a sort of joystick. Just putting those on hides the panels well enough.
The other thing is that it’s pretty well-shaped for a LEGO spider. That’s what surprises me.
easy. he used a sh*t load of “aerials”
I used several thousand of the little levers, on top of mostly black plates used to shape out the body.
